Aftercare guide for Children’s Earlobes
Congratulations! Your child got their first piercings. Now what?!
Wash your hands
Spray the piercing on the front and back of the earlobe with sterile saline. Do not use other products such as alcohol, peroxide, neosporin, etc.
If needed, gently wipe away any ‘crusties’ or dried blood using a clean q-tip or folded paper towel.
Lightly pat the piercing dry using a clean paper towel.
Aftercare should be done 2-3x per day. No more than this!
Let your child know not to touch, twist, pull or remove their jewelry.
Do your best to keep wet hair off of their piercing. This can cause issues due to moisture on the back side of the ears for an extended amount of time.
Let your child know to be extra careful when brushing their hair so they don’t snag their piercing.
Encourage your child to communicate any issues they may have.
Do not let your child swim in pools, lakes or the ocean for a few weeks following the piercing.
